The award was decided by over a hundred reviewers across Europe and given in recognition of the impact that the EPIC series made within the market since their launch with multiple best-in-class awards and overwhelmingly positive feedback.

Delightful aesthetics, finest details and choice materials

The chairs' elegance is furthered by many loving details like the subtly debossed logo that crests the headrest above an elliptical aluminium emblem with relief lettering which adorns the backrest. The breathable imitation leather cover is perforated in the contact zones for ideal aeration and possesses an intriguing surface texture that emulates real leather perfectly. This black-blue version of the noblechairs PU imitation leather range of gaming chairs comes with blue seams along with a blue logo patch with golden embroidery and its easy-to-clean black artificial leather is nicely framed by black faux velour leather stripes. Combined with a stunning list of features the noblechairs EPIC series indubitably constitutes the pinnacle of gaming chair development.

"To sum up, this is simply one of the best chairs I've ever used and that includes several office chairs that claim to be ergonomic too. It's not a soft, kick back recliner - it's a proper chair that's comfortable and more importantly, promotes a good posture and is fully adjustable."

High-precision manufacturing for superb ergonomics

As behoves a premium product, any noblechairs' enviable sitting comfort is fabled due to its dimensionally stable high-class upholstery made of freshly moulded cold foam with 55 per cent density straight from the factory instead of recycled waste scraps used in many lesser, competing products. Its open-cell cold foam structure delivers optimal breathability in conjunction with the luxurious cover materials employed, which allows for a pleasant climate regulation and brings along increased robustness and longevity. The gaming chairs are perfected with fully automated manufacturing processes akin to those applied by car manufacturers that warrant a flawlessly pristine build quality.

A plethora of features with plenty of adjustment options

An advanced rocking mechanism, that allows for rocking the chairs up to 14 degrees, is accompanied by softly cushioned 4D armrests made of polyurethane, 360-degree swivel rotation, flexibly adjustable seat height via a safety class 4 gas lift and a sturdy steel frame mounted atop a durable five-star-base made of pure aluminium.

The pertaining five smoothly running 60 mm casters with nylon core and polyurethane coating are attached to the base and equally suited for soft and hard floors. The noblechairs gamer seat's tilt positions can be locked and the tilt tension can be dynamically adjusted. Also the angle between backrest and seating area can be statically adjusted through a practical side lever.

Two velvet pillows in matching colours included

Such sovereign adjustment options and flexible ergonomics render the noblechairs the most sophisticated gaming chairs available on the market. To adequately support the neck area and lumbar region, two removable pillows that allow for ultimate relaxation are included with every unit. Thanks to their unrivalled set of properties combined with long-awaited innovations, the EPIC series gaming chairs are not just suited for gamers and pro gamers, but for virtually everyone who craves for a truly comfortable office chair with chic design made of superior materials and produced with utmost quality.

All noblechairs gaming chairs are compliant with the UK Fire Safety Regulations for Furniture and Furnishings (BS 5852) and therefore possess a fire-retardant layer that has been applied to the surface material to minimise fire hazards.

Customer review

Average customer rating

Excellent style and quality

The Germans have a certain reputation for engineering and quality and certainly this chair is no exception. From the moment you open the box its easy to see that it has been packed to perfection, the instructions are clear and the build process is simple.
The quality of the chair is exceptional, from the metal base to the detailed stitching work its every bit as good to look at as it is to sit in. The many adjustments mean you can always find a comfortable position whether you are casual gaming or performing office work, and the chair mechanism reclines and adjusts silently, no horrible creaking or rubbing sounds.
Despite the otherwise glowing review I do have two very minor complaints, the first of which is it's ability to move on carpeted flooring. Hard surfaces pose no problem, but the weight and shape of the wheels mean it takes quite a lot of force to move on carpet. My only other complaint is the lack of padding on the armrests. The armrests are fantastic in their adjustability, however having used this chair for long bouts of gaming my forearms got chaffed due to the hard nature of the padding material.
Overall these are minor gripes and I would highly recommend this chair.
My favorite aspect is the style, which is much more subtle and mature looking than most of the other gaming chairs on the market. This wouldnt look out of place in a high end Audi sports car.

Highly Recommended!

Being a full time streamer I spend 90% of the day working from the office sitting for most of it, I've sat on many different brand of chair at gaming events and the only one I instantly fell in love with and knew I wanted was a Noblechair. Super comfortable and being able to change the placement of the arm rest and the angle of the chair makes it even greater when you find that sweet spot!
It goes without saying the build quality is perfect and the team at Overclockers are always super helpful and shipping was super fast.
Highly recommend this to anyone looking for the perfect addition to any gaming setup or office.

Best computer chair I've ever sat in

The Noblechair is the most comfortable computer chair I've ever used. Being a gamer and working from home I spend most of my time at a desk and I feel it gives the perfect support in all the right places. It can be adjusted in pretty much every place to create a unique feel for every person.
The mechanics of the chair are all testament to the build quality of the chair, they are so smooth and reliable. I am a very textile person and the feel of the materials Noblechair uses really proves the quality and that not a penny is spared in the manufacturing. I was a bit skeptical about the price at first but as soon as the chair arrived I was reassured.
I would advise anyone who spends a decent length of time at the computer to invest in this great chair. It has helped my posture and cured the back pain a previous chair had given me which is the biggest reason why I am more than happy to spend the money for the Noblechair.

Very Sturdy

These chairs are awesome. As soon as you sit on it you can tell immediately that they are made to the highest standard and are very sturdy, an all round well built chair with bundle's of comfort. I couldn't be happier with this chair so well done to you guys on building such an epic gaming chair.

Still Very Happy

As usual Overclockers customer services was brilliant. This chair was to replace another brand that seemed to suffer from discoloration on the back of the seat. They changed it without any fuss and my Noble chair arrived within a day or two.
After opening the box all the components were very well wrapped and a quick check didn’t show any faulty parts. Putting the chair together was fairly simple, although I did struggle a little trying to bolt the chair back onto the seat by myself. You would probably need a second pair of hands to help with that bit, in fact Noble recommend two people assemble the char. All the components fitted together without any issues, there were no misaligned bolts or anything so all good so far.
The finished chair is very sturdy, the fabric itself looks very well stitched together and the blue stitching and logo give it a nice clean look. All of the handles are well placed to adjust the chair. The bolts holding the chair together all have locking washers so I don’t think they will come loose too quickly. All in all, the components are well made and look like they should be part of an expensive chair. The chair also comes with a lumbar cushion and a head cushion. The head cushion is made of a very soft material and is very soft and the lumbar cushion is made of some sort of dense foam material. Again the quality of the cushions matched the chair, both having the noble logo stitched in blue to match the chair. The head cushion has a band of elastic which just loops around the chairs head rest, the lumbar cushion is attached to the chair using some elastic loops that fit through the chair and are clipped together, this is adjustable depending on how you want the lumbar cushion to sit. So very impressed so far.
So I have now been using the chair for five months now. I work from home most of the time so have spent a lot of time sat in this chair. I can say I am still very happy with it. The material on the chair hasn’t suffered from any discoloration or seems to be coming apart all the stitching seems to be excellent condition. I have however noticed some minor niggles.
Firstly, the head cushion seems to leak the material from inside, every so often you can see the stands of fiber peeping through so it’s just a case of pulling them through very carefully. The chair seat also hasn’t given yet, it’s still pretty firm as was the day I put it together, this may be a good thing as I’ve sat in some chairs that have got too soft after usage. Thirdly the lumbar cushion is just too uncomfortable for me, I’ve tried it several times but I just can’t get on with it, I end up sitting too far forward in the chair. My last and most worrying observation that the hydraulic piston has a bit of lateral movement in it, it sometimes feels like it is rocking slightly. The piston is securely seated in both the chair stand and the chair base but seems to be moving somewhere in the middle. I turned the chair upside down and could see it moving in the join between the two sections of the piston. The chair is pretty much as low as it can go so I not sure why this has happened. Hopefully this can be sorted out under the chairs warranty.
Anyway this is still a very good chair, I would recommend it to anyone.

Nice looking Quality product

This chair is a solid build and I must say looks really nice compared to all the other makes of chairs I have seen on Overclockers website I know it's expensive but you get what you pay for and I must say I'm not disappointed with my purchase at all. The chair is a pain to build but much easier to build with two people as one person can hold the chair while the other person lines the holes up and insert the bolts. The chair is very hard to sit in as I found it uncomfortable to sit in for the first week or so as my body was getting use to a much firmer chair and now that my body is use to it I'm starting to find it very comfortable as I sit in the chair for about 12 hours a day plus I have the chair on the lower hight setting and my feet touch the floor so if you are smaller the 5 foot 7 you may need a foot stool. So if you like a firm gaming chair I recommend you get a Noblechair

Very comfortable

I've had this chair about 2 months now and I'm still really pleased with it.
It was relatively easy to put together albeit quite cumbersome when putting together alone.
While I do find it a very comfortable chair it is quite a bit firmer than I was expecting and it took me a week or so to get used to it. The head cushion and lumbar cusion are great additions.
The only things I feel let it down are the arm rests feel as though they are in the wrong place (a little narrow) but that could just be me. The other would be that you can't lower the chair down far enough. When I want to switch to playing on the console rather than the PC I like to tilt the chair back a bit but that means my feet don't touch the floor. I'm not small (about 5'11) so bear that in mind.
All in all I would still recommend this chair

Comfort & Quality

The chair is extremely comfortable. Due to the how adjustable the chair is, I found it offers great support . I am currently recovering from shoulder and neck damage, and this chair is a lot better for me than my other more basic chairs. Whilst this is not a cheap chair, I think my money was well spent due to the quality of the product, and the fact it provides the support I need.
I highly recommend. Also, Overclockers also delivered promptly, and without issue.

Quality product

Just finished putting my new Epic chair together. Construction was fairly straightforward and took me half an hour by myself. I did struggle for five minutes to get the first bolt hole lined up while wrestling with the weight of the backrest. Once that was done the other holes were no problem. To be fair Noble do recommend having two people to build the chair and this would have been helpful in this instance.

The finished chair is a quality product, sturdy with virtually no slop in any of the components. The bolts all have locking washers so its not likely they will loosen over time. The fabric is thick and well stitched, is fitted square, has no marks or blemishes and doesn't look like it will wear out quickly, but time will tell. Even the bolt and handle covers are well made injection mouldings. At no point during the build did I find myself saying: "That looks cheap, they could have spent a few quid more there."

I'm 5 foot 7 inches and 170 pounds and was worried this chair might be too big for me. First impressions are that its just about OK size-wise, although I think anyone much smaller might need to use the lumbar cushion to prevent the front of the seat digging into their calves. I'm not using that but am using the neck cushion which is very soft and comfortable, anyone smaller than me might find it sitting a little too high though. The seat padding itself is firm, but then that's how I like it.

The adjustments all work well. As well as up and down the seat bottom can be easily locked at any angle of tilt or just allowed to rock fore and aft, while the backrest can be angled and locked independently. Both armrests can be adjusted in all three axis by pressing and releasing buttons. I'd have liked a little more inward travel for them though as they are slightly too far apart to be ideal for me.
